I was once presented this during an interview which wasn't going too well (I decided I didn't want to work there after seeing the working conditions of the developers: 60+ developers crammed in a small room with minuscule desks, distributed in rows where people would bump into the chairs whenever they had to get up and move) and they told me that a lot of the candidates couldn't solve it and would be an elimination test. They told me I could use any language I wanted, so for kicks I did a simple Haskell version of it (nothing complicated, just a fizzbuzz function mapped over the list). I was told on the spot that I failed and they wouldn't continue the interview. Why the this story, just if you give anyone a choice of any language to solve fizzbuzz or other problem, be sure you are open to see code that looks strange to you.
